Student Records Policy FL Student records are confidential and are protected from unauthorized inspection or use. Employees should take precautions to maintain the confidentiality of all student records. The following people are the only people who have general access to a student’s records: • Parents: Married, separated, or divorced unless parental rights have been legally terminated and the school has been given a copy of the court order terminating parental rights • The student: The rights of parents transfer to a student who turns 18 or is enrolled in an institution of post-secondary education. A district is not prohibited from granting the student access to the student’s records before this time. • School officials with legitimate educational interests The student handbook provides parents and students with detailed information on student records. Parents or students who want to review student records should be directed to the campus principal for assistance.

Parents are encouraged to discuss problems or complaints with the teacher or the appropriate administrator at any time. Parents and students with complaints that cannot be resolved to their satisfaction should be directed to the campus principal. The formal complaint process provides parents and students with an opportunity to be heard up to the highest level of management if they are dissatisfied with a principal’s response. Administering Medication to Students Policy FFAC All medication to be administered to students shall be kept locked in the campus nurse’s office.

[See FFAC (LEGAL)] A written request by a physician or other health-care professional with authority to write prescriptions shall be required when the medication must be administered for a longer period. • Nonprescription medication, upon a parent’s written request for relief from menstrual cramps and dental or orthodontic procedures, or with a doctor’s note for other reasons. All medication shall be properly labeled and in the original container. All consent for medication administration expires at the end of the school year. New consent forms must be submitted at the beginning of each school year. • Herbal or dietary supplements provided by the parent only if required by the student’s individualized education program (IEP) or Section 504 plan for a student with disabilities. • In certain emergency situations, the district will maintain and administer to a student Non-prescription medication, but only: • In accordance with the guidelines developed with the district’s medical advisor; and • When the parent has previously provided written consent to emergency treatment on the District’s form.
